Analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of one of the most coveted free agents on the NBA market, Carmelo Anthony. Is he worth the hoopla that surrounds him and can he justify a 22-24 million dollar contract per year?

44 NBA prospects from different backgrounds were brought into the Los Angeles Clippers Practice Facility in Playa Vista, California on Wednesday and Thursday to work out for all 30 NBA teams. This group workout, widely known as the Clippers Mini-Combine, was organized by the Brooklyn Nets, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers, and featured measurements, agility testing, interview sessions and drill-work similar to the NBA Combine in Chicago.

Jerami Grant took a significant step forward as a sophomore, finding new ways to take advantage of his tremendous physical tools as a key member of Syracuse's rotation. We take an inventory of everything he displayed this season as an NBA prospect, as well as the things he still has to improve on.

Alex Abrines is one of the top young prospects in European basketball, and he's decided to keep his name in the draft despite seeing inconsistent playing time this season in Barcelona. What type of prospect is he, and when can NBA teams expect to get him over if they decide to draft him?

Continuing our series of analyses, we take a look at one of the more balanced positions in this years draft. With a number of high-level and second-round-caliber prospects, the growing diversity of the power forward position has made this the deepest crop weve seen in quite some time, something that NBA teams are surely taking note of as they prepare to make their draft picks in 10 days.

Continuing our series of analyses, we evaluate one of the deepest and most intriguing positions in this years draft. With 12 prospects that could be in play in the first round, this group has a number of highly intriguing case studies.

Of all the players in this draft, none elicits as wide a range of responses from NBA talent evaluators as Fresno State sophomore Paul George. In terms of pure upside, though, there may not be five players in this draft with more overall talent than what we saw from George in Los Angeles.

Opinions on the importance of measurements vary greatly, as they are just one piece to the puzzle that determines whether a player will end up being successful. Measurements are still widely anticipated both by NBA draft fans and talent evaluators because they present a completely objective way of comparing prospects.

Continuing our assessment of the top NBA draft prospects in college basketball, we move on to the non-BCS conferences, where there is more than enough NBA talent to go around. VCUs Larry Sanders leads the pack here, followed by Tulsas Jerome Jordan, Butlers Gordon Hayward, Fresno States Paul George, and Daytons Chris Wright.

Though Blake Griffin is clearly the headliner of this year's group of power forwards, we've compiled significant data to thoroughly investigate the depth and versatility of this class from top to bottom to identify trends and make some observations.

If the slew of 2008 and former top 10 picks playing in each and every game here wasnt enough, today we were treated to a great surprisethe #2 pick in last years draft, Kevin Durant, making an appearance alongside Russell Westbrook and Jeff Green in the Oklahoma City game. If there was any doubt that the Orlando Summer League is the place to be, this definitely sealed the deal.

Were back at the Orlando Summer League once again to take a look at how many of the top prospects from this and last years draft are faring early in their NBA careers. The league is about as attractive as it has ever been this time around, with 3 of the top 4 picks in attendance, as well as numerous other highly regarded young players such as Jeff Green, Joakim Noah, Tyrus Thomas, Brook Lopez and others.

Considering that this is our fifth straight year on the summer league circuit, we know what to expect here (a lot of bad basketball), and know better than to get too excited or too down on players who do extremely well or poorly here. With that said, its always fun to get a taste of how these guys look in person, and it sure beats not watching any basketball at all.

Next up in our series of articles intending to add scouting reports to every single NBA player in our database are the first three teams in the Southeastern division, the Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Bobcats and Miami Heat.

Strengths Raymond Felton possesses tremendous speed and quickness. With or without the ball, he is one of the fastest guards in the country, college or pro. His explosive quickness allows him to beat defenders off the dribble and dash past defenders in the open court. He can change speeds in an instant and is rarely caught off balance. On the break, he has the ability to rise above the rim and finish strong due to his great vertical. Felton makes up for any lack of size or strength with his superior athleticism. He has shown during his career at North Carolina that he is extremely tough and resilient and able to play through injuries, which were many. Felton never missed a game in college due to injuries.

Felton is a fantastic ball handler, probably the best in the draft. He can get anywhere on the court at any time. Coupled with his relentless attacking style this puts constant pressure on the defense. Felton has the ability to beat defenders off the dribble either to his left or right and does so often. Once in the paint he can finish at the rim with either hand. His speed and ball handling skills make him almost impossible to press against. He splits defenders with ease, using a low fast dribble to his advantage. He always dribbles with his head up looking for open teammates ready to dish at any moment.

Felton is a rare breed these days. He is a true pass first point guard looking to get his teammates involved before looking for his own offense. He has incredible court vision and sees things develop long before they are there. On the break he is deadly. He can make difficult passes look easy and is not scared to make those passes, even in traffic. After beating his man off the dribble he does a great job of drawing defenders then dumping the ball off to open teammates in the paint. Despite all his passing skills, Felton is not a showboat and does not make unnecessary, flashy passes. He gets the right person the ball, in rhythm, at the right time.

When Felton needs to score he can and he showed it throughout North Carolina's title run. His jump shot has improved drastically from last season to this season, going from 31% to 44% (70 out of 159) on 3 point attempts. He is now showing good form with his elbow tucked in, solid follow-through with his hand and good rise and lift going straight up. He has stopped the unnecessary drifting and fading that plagued him during his first two years at North Carolina. Felton is no longer a liability from behind the arc.

On defense, Felton is a tireless worker, showing great energy, desire and anticipation. He has incredibly quick hands which allow him to get to many errant passes or loose balls. He also has exceptionally quick feet and he knows how to get position, which makes him tough to beat off the dribble. His speed, quickness and athletic ability also allow him to guard opponents far from the basket. Felton is a very aggressive defender, often gambling for steals in the passing lanes, although much of this was due to Roy Williams' defensive philosophy. Despite his aggressiveness, Felton does a good job of avoiding fouls. He only fouled out of one game his junior year. Felton also played man to man almost exclusively at North Carolina, which should give him a head start over some guards.

Felton has certain traits that you just can't teach. He is a natural leader, he is very competitive and he is a clutch performer, rising to accept any challenge. He's been a winner at every stage in his basketball career. In high school he won back to back state titles. He scored 45 points in the championship game his senior year. Now you can add a college national championship to that resume.
